This is a weird case because i lost my internet connection after putting my comp on standby accidentally. My brother managed to track it down to my firewall software (ZoneAlarm 6.1). I got it removed but there was still no internet.Are there any ways to force windows to reconnect because i still cant get my IP address from my ISP (sidenote: the hardware, ISP, modem are all right). I tried safe mode and the repair function to no avail.
View 13 RepliesI have a HP Pavilion (new 1/06) with Windows XP, Avast 4.7 Anti-Virus(free version) and Zone Alarm(ZA) Anti Spyware(I purchased ZA for one year). When reactivating computer from sleep mode, it will not reconnect to the internet or my e-mail program without restarting the computer. As soon as I try to reconnect, the ZoneAlarm Icon becomes active and for some reason does not allow a connection to be completed

After long periods of my internet connection being idle (2+ hours usually), all programs requiring internet access are unable to connect. By idle I mean I leave to run some errands with no programs other than Zone Alarm running. My DSL modem still has all lights flashing and active. There are a couple other scenarios where this occurs as well. Ex. I'm playing WoW for extended periods but not using the internet through any other program, then upon alt-tabbing no other applications are able to connect to the internet even though WoW is still connected and functioning. Rebooting the router/modem doesn't fix it, but rebooting the comp does.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI think that I have a virus which is stopping me from 1) Installing Norton Internet Security 2005 properly, and 2) Stopping me from accessing all anti-virus related sites, for example - www.symantec.com, ww.grisoft.com, www.pandasoftware.com, and when i tried to download AVG 6.0 from another site which was unrelated to antivirus, I found that I could access the site but the download failed.

I use MSN as my ISP, and before, i could access internet explorer, or firefox, or any program without ever actually having to sign in to MSN. after the crash, however, i now have to sign in to access internet explorer, firefox, and a couple programs. what angers me, however, is that i DONT have to sign in to access trillian. Limewire, also, will connect, but wont download anything without msn being logged in. How do i get back to how it was? And no, system restore did not work.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a number of XP computers (all SP2) connected to the Net via a wireless modem/router. Everything was fine until a few days ago when my connection speed dramatically slowed after being online for a few hours. This happens to all of the PCs in my home - so it's nothing internal to my PC. I tried to transfer a large file across the wireless network and it transferred fine (5Mb in 10 seconds). I can also connect to the router's web management software without problem. So it's not the wireless connection. Which leaves either my modem/router or my broadband connection. The router's "DSL" light is always on which infers that my broadband connection is OK. So that leaves my modem/router.
My users are unable to access the internet via Internet Explorer 7.With Firefox and changes in the proxy it works good, however, unable to access with Internet Explorer.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI installed a parental control program for Internet Explorer, but it was not allowing AOL to dial any numbers. Also, after shutting down the AOL, Windows XP would shut down the parental control program saying that it was malfunctioning. So I decided to delete the parental control program from my hard drive, and I used the uninstall program of the parental control program to uninstall it. After the uninstall, I noticed that I could dial and use the AOL browser as usual, but I could not use Internet Explorer. Any web pages that I tried to visit using IE would not display, and Internet Explorer would say, �This page cannot be displayed.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have 4 computers on a LAN using Level One Homeplug adapters and USR MAXg ADSL Gateway router all set to automatic configuration and operating Windows XP Home edition, all were working just fine. All of a sudden two of them developed limited or not connectivity (yellow triangle) and could not access the internet. After using the �repair function in the LAN status, one of them was repaired and is now OK. I could not get the other one back to normal for a long time and trying many different settings (manual configuration would not work either) so I re-formatted the drive and re-installed Windows. Now I do have a connection and the IP address is DHCP assigned I have done a ping test with the gateway and everything looks fine, but I just cannot access the internet. I get the message website found, waiting for a reply but the screen just stays blank until unable to access internet page comes up.
On device manager page, I get a yellow triangle under network controller but this only appears when I have a USR wireless modem installed which is not being used and is normally disabled. When the wireless card is removed from the motherboard there is no �network controller and associated yellow triangle. After following some of the advice seen on this forum I did a ping test with yahoo.com and it was OK and then a test with address 216.109.118.71 (not sure if this test would be relevant in my situation) and that one failed.
